"The United States steamer Bronx, under sealed orders. What steamer is that?" "I did; you were correctly informed," answered Corny, as the wandering gaze of the commander rested upon him. "As you please," replied the surgeon, as the second lieutenant returned attended by two stout seamen. The rattle of musketry became quite sharp, and the bullets were penetrating the bulwarks. Two had been wounded at one of the guns, and carried below. Christy stepped over to the end of the 355 bridge to call a hand to take the place of Boxie, and at that moment he felt a sharp sting, as it were, in his right arm, above the elbow. Involuntarily he raised his hand to the place, and felt the warm blood oozing from the wound. It produced a momentary faintness; but he braced himself up, and wound his handkerchief around his arm, calling upon the wheelman to tie it, as he hastened to the aid of Vincent. He said not a word about the accident.
